Update...
We are in Midland with the flu on our supposed way to Colorado. We had planned to leave to go as far as Santa Fe tonight, but we aren't leaving today after all. I don't know what our new travel plans will be. Odell is feeling better, but Braeden is worse. We will see what happens...

Santa found us here in Midland. The kids had a great time with their presents before Braeden just got too sick to play any more. Now he is in bed with his new things next to him. Gracyn got a phone and has begun calling all her friends. Kaegan got a cuckoo clock and a karaoke machine. Braeden got...star wars legos...naturally. Everyone was very pleased and excited! I may have been the most excited. I got a mandolin! Now, I have to figure the thing out. That will be fun.
Odell got binoculars. (The better to see you with!)

Gracyn has set up a fun blog for herself. The address is goose-like.blogspot.com. Check it out!
